Like I'm Native American, but just stating that is too broad and ignores a lot of the subsects of Indigenous culture. Like my race would be Indigenous, my ethnicity is specifically Lakota.

Tyranogre Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Lately I've been seeing Twitter threads that claim to be something clickbaity like a new Smash rumor or something, but when I actually click the threads, it turns out to be a link to sites about fighting against anti-Asian discrimination in light of the recent shooting in Atlanta. Like, I understand where these people are coming from, but is it really in good taste to put a serious social issue on the same level as old bait-and-switch memes like Rickrolling or Ronaldinho Soccer?

Spring Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 i use ethinicity and race interchangeably because no one who asks me 'what i am' knows the difference anyway, clearly Link to comment

I just use my phone or my work laptop which I believe backs up work files at least. I got nothing really I need backed up that's not pictures on my iCloud or some files in my email. Link to comment
Tyranogre Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 You know those sappy reality TV shows where they visit the homes of people with chronic hoarding disorders and help them clean all the unnecessary junk out of their houses? I need to get on one of those shows for my hard drive. Link to comment

Edie Napier Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 my HDD at this point i'm happy to migrate over since it was 11 years old ignoring that half of it was games because games are too fucking big nowadays 50% anime 35% music 15% uhhhhh shhhhhhhh which still amounts to about 70 gigs of porn which is a lot, but it's actually very little of my total harddrive space :Vi'm actually incredibly tilted that after purging a lot of it before the migration it's at 69.9GB Tyranogre and April 2 Link to comment
